Emoji picker for finding and copying Unicode emojis. Browse categories or search for a name, choose a supported variant, and paste it into your text.
The Emoji Picker helps you find Unicode emojis and copy them into a message, document, or caption. Browse a category or search for the emoji you need, then paste it into your text.
Availability and appearance can depend on the picker data, your device font, and the receiving app.
Browse by category (Smileys, People, Animals, Food, Travel, Activities, Objects, Symbols, Flags) or search by name, keyword, or shortcode (:thumbsup:). Click an emoji to copy it. Choose a skin-tone variant where the picker supports one. Use the recent-picks list to revisit earlier selections.

Click or tap an emoji to copy it to your clipboard.
For emojis with skin-tone variants, hover (desktop) or long-press (mobile) to choose the variant.
Paste into a text field that accepts emojis with Ctrl+V / Cmd+V (or the platform's paste menu).
Use copied emojis in these writing tasks:
Social media captions: Instagram, X, Threads, TikTok, LinkedIn posts where an emoji such as ⥠can add a visual cue.
Slack & Discord messages: find an emoji to paste into a message.
Email subject lines: đ, đĨ, â ī¸ in email drafts. Check how the subject line displays before sending.
YouTube titles & descriptions: check how an emoji appears in the title or description.
Notion / Obsidian / Linear pages: tagging docs and tasks with visual cues.
GitHub READMEs & commits: the conventional-commit and gitmoji communities use emojis to categorise changes (đ docs, ⨠feature, đ fix).
Stylish bio writing: Instagram, LinkedIn, and dating-app bios where emojis replace bullets and headers.
Presentations & Google Docs: emojis as visual markers. Check the destination display.
Search the picker for the emoji you need. Do not assume a particular Unicode release or every variant is available on every device.
The picker copies Unicode characters rather than an image of an emoji. The destination app uses its available font to display them, so the appearance can differ from the preview.
The selection depends on the dataset used by the picker. Check for the particular emoji or variant you need rather than relying on a total count.
Emojis are Unicode characters; how they look depends on the operating system's emoji font. Apple, Google (Noto), Microsoft (Segoe UI Emoji), Samsung, and WhatsApp all render the same emoji slightly differently. The Unicode codepoint stays identical: only the artwork varies.
Unicode supports five skin-tone modifiers (Fitzpatrick scale Types 1-2 through 5-6). When you select a tone for a supported emoji (e.g. đ), the picker copies the base emoji plus the modifier as a two-character sequence. Modern systems render it as a single tone-adjusted glyph.
:fire:) for?Many platforms (Slack, Discord, GitHub, Hashnode, Dev.to) accept shortcodes like :fire: and render them as đĨ. You can search the picker by shortcode to find the matching emoji, then copy either the emoji itself or the shortcode (long-press / right-click for the option).
The receiving site or app may strip non-ASCII characters, or your device's font may not have a glyph for that codepoint (rare, but possible for very new additions). Try an emoji supported by the device and check whether the receiving field allows it.
Yes: focus the search box and start typing to filter. Use the Tab key to navigate emojis and Enter to copy. Esc clears the search.
Use it when you want to search or browse emojis alongside text in another browser tab. Your device keyboard is another option; choose the interface that fits your task.
